Members of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Kuroko I and II in Adavi Local Government Area were treated to a dramatic display on Sunday when they received about 1000 decampees from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, into their rank.
Leader of the group, Hon. Isah Bello led the decampees. Hon. Ajoge Enesi Abu the Administrator of the local government with members of his cabinet received the new members and promised that the party will provide them with a level playing ground to ventilate their political views and ambitions. He also told them to support the new direction administration of Alhaji Yahaya Bello.
In his speech, Isah Bello said he had been in darkness, but now he had seen the light. He therefore apologized to his new party.
“On behalf of myself and my people from Kuroko ward, let me apologize for the steps we had taken in the past for not supporting APC from the beginning. With the development of things in our country today and with happenings within our immediate environment, we have realized our folly and decided to retrace our steps”, he said.
Receiving the decampees, the Adavi LGA acting APC chairman, Hon Barnabas Oyibo commended them for taking the right step at the right time, adding that it is good that you have seen the light and decided to leave the sinking ship.
“APC is a party that respects the rule of law, it abhors injustice and discrimination, those things that are common place in PDP, let me assure you that your dreams and aspirations are better secured in APC”.
